That is a very nice looking watch. What is the asking price of this one? No box or papers for this one either? That always makes me nervous, and, it will detract some from the value of the watch.

1655

Thank you steve and Terry
There are no papers and box to come w/ this one. they dont know the history. But they have a ex rolex master-repairman to go thru everything and authentificate the watch.The asking price is $23k-24K depends on the exchange rate. I have also asked them if they can send to japan Rolex to full serve it w/o changing viual parts. They have 3 others w/ Rolex service papers but those have some more replaced parts, they dont have the matching patina in the dial and hands.

I have started collecting watches recently. Last 30yrs I bought or inherent few watches like Omega,Porsche by IWC,Longines,Movado and seiko. But I never had Rolex till this year. My ist one was 77'5513, after that I got hooked on Rolexes. Now I have 78'1675,65'1016,98' 16520,78'1603,56'6564,and some other brand like Breitling, Franck muller and Panerai.Its kind of crazy. Now my heart is in1655.This is more expensive and more fakes around so I am trying to get all the help I can.
